'flawed and harmful'Members of Congress on Friday called for President Joe Biden to replace every member of the US Postal Service's board of governors, saying they had enabled the Postmaster general, Louis DeJoy, in his "harmful" policy decisions.
"There should not be any toleration for their silence or complicity in overseeing these harmful policy changes that have also eroded the public trust in this agency," Senator Tammy Duckworth said in a letter sent to the president.
Rep. Bill Pascrell Jr. said on Twitter, "Americans don't want to hear excuses. We can start fixing the Post Office by firing the leadership."
He added: "Louis DeJoy was appointed by Trump to slow your mail and destroy your Post Office. He's corrupt and needs to go."

Despicable!

(31,261 posts)the most with no Post Office, in fact, some places that meet that description will cease to exist. Guess who rural and ex-burb people overwhelmingly support? Sure isnt Democrats. So republicans are cutting their own throat with their attacks on the Post Office, a face that a handful of them are starting to see.

(36,809 posts)Self-serving sycophant of Trump with a goal of sabotaging the PO for two reasons: his own gain and loyalty to Trump.
Destroying mail sorting machines and going back to manual labor.
Surely there must be a cost-benefit analysis to make such a business decision. Let's see it.
